Never Enough

Going through life, doing my best
I've made my parents proud,
going over hurdles most my age couldn't stand.

It was senior year when I met you,
caring, sweet, older guy.
I fell for you, not knowing
what I was getting myself into.

You were proud of me at first,
I was working full time, while attending 2 hours at school,
and doing full time online school work.
I slowly worn myself thin, made to quit work.

Barley making it through school, you pushed for me to work, again.
Another job this time I chose my schedule,
Still, failing several classes and not graduating on time.
Summer school here I come!

It was almost a year and a half after we got together I realized,
what ever I did, was never enough.
Working and trying to graduate was never enough for you.
My best, was never enough...
I reached my breaking point and broke it off..

Four months later,
I believed you changed..
Back together again.

The first months I saw a change in you,
you were a better person.
I became pregnant, and hormones rage.
I had decided to do online college to be able to work from home,
But my best efforts became slowly, not enough

I try my best for you, but it seems like it's never enough,
I'm losing this battle, and tired of being put down,
not having your trust, my strength is weak,

I feel that you're not going to be able to curb your attitude,
when the baby comes,
I don't want the baby to grow up like this,
because no matter what I do for you, it's never enough.

This baby, won't be subjected to you,
your negativity and criticism
